Q136 / 180 · KCET 2013 · Physics

For a transformed, the turns ratio is 3 and its efficiency is $0.75$. The current flowing in the primary coil is $2 \mathrm{~A}$ and the voltage applied to it is $100 \mathrm{~V}$. Then the voltage and the current flowing in the secondary coil are ... respectively

  • A
    $150 \mathrm{~V}, 1.5 \mathrm{~A}$
  • Correct answer
    B
    $300 \mathrm{~V}, 0.5 \mathrm{~A}$
  • C
    $300 \mathrm{~V}, 1.5 \mathrm{~A}$
  • D
    $150 \mathrm{~V}, 0.5 \mathrm{~A}$

Solution

Given, $\frac{n_{s}}{n_{P}}=3 ; \quad \eta=0.75 ; I_{P}=2 \mathrm{~A}$ and $V_{P}=100 \mathrm{~V}$ We know that, $\begin{aligned} &\qquad \eta=\frac{V_{S}}{V_{P}} \frac{I_{S}}{I_{P}} \\ &\text { or } \quad \eta=\left(\frac{n_{s}}{n_{P}}\right) \frac{I_{s}}{I_{P}} \quad\left(\because \frac{n_{s}}{n_{p}}=\frac{V_{s}}{V_{p}}\right) \\ &\Rightarrow \quad 0.75=\frac{3 \times I_{s}}{2} \\ &\Rightarrow \quad I_{s}=0.5 \mathrm{~A} \\ &\text { By the relation, } \frac{n_{s}}{n_{P}}=\frac{V_{s}}{V_{P}} \\ &\Rightarrow \quad 3=\frac{V_{s}}{100} \Rightarrow \quad V_{s}=300 \mathrm{~V} \end{aligned}$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
